The problem with Insas is that, because it's a holding company, it's rather stingy on dividend. If this quarter it announces another dividend, I think it's another turning point in it's management direction. I'll load more if, it announces sterling results and another dividend. It should play catch up eventually. Assuming a doubling of EPS from 9.13 last year to 18.26 (which is very conservative looking at how the subsidiaries all are doing and Q1 EPS of 8.87sen), a PER of 10 values the company at RM 1.83. Current PER is barely 5. And it has cash of more than 300m and growing! HoHup coming out of PN17 by June, develops Bkt Jalil land. Melium group potential listing. Gleneagles expansion. Inari spectacular growth. It's not if, but when it'll fly.
It has stayed under 60cents for several years and only last year it surged past. I agree with you, need an engine to kick start the surge. The show will begin when it breach past rm1.00 barrier. Anyway, insas is also substantial holder for FRB.
With hohup, inari and frb already up, I guess insas might have the power this time.
And remember, it's NA per share is 1.63 as at last quarter. so it's trading at 45% discount! No brainer lah. If the share price does't move up, Dato' Thong will privatise it with a MGO. So, load up.
Hopefully can hit RM1.20. Good they give better declaration of dividends to boost investors confidence! However tomorrow is Friday and 24 feb is again USA fed meeting. Asian markets seems down.
Just pray hard some body like Quek or Vincent Tan take a controlling stake in Insas and take Insas private ...... then everyone of us will laugh all the way to the bank.
After a healthy pullback for the past few months, INSAS has regained investors’ interest with its share price gaining 8 sen in the past two days to close at 90.5 sen. This could be due to the recent share price spike of INARI, in which Insas owns a substantial holding. As a result of the sharp moves on higher volume, INSAS has confirmed a “Bullish Flag” pattern which is indicative of a continuation of its prior uptrend. The key indicators are also supportive of an up-cycle, with moving average crossover and RSI indicators hooked up. We expect INSAS to extend its gains onwards the RM1.25 “Flagpole” measurement objective. Meanwhile, near term downside should be quite limited, and we would expect strong support at the 86 sen (S1) support level.
Hi ALL, I want to bring to your attention to the valuation of the associate companies on the just released Balance Sheet. On 30 Sep 13, closing price for Inari was RM1.02. On 31 Dec 13, it was RM1.63, price difference of 61sen. On 1st Oct 13, Inari on Bursa website, announced Insas held 158,816,124 company shares (exclude warrants). So for the 3 months ended 31 Dec 2013 for Insas, just Inari's shares (didn't even include warrants) alone would have netted it a re-valuation gain on associate companies of RM96,877.8mil. Pleas note that in between this period, Insas had continued to up its stake in Inari; so the weighted average holding and gain should be higher. And for those who had been following this company closely, we ALSO KNOW that prices for Hop Hup, Formis had also been doing WELL. So now my question here is, WHY ONLY RM19,705mil increase in the valuation of associate companies for the last quarter? If Inari and Formis are not considered as associates, I don't know what are they. So why the LOW valuation increase here?
valueguru, Insas has not accounted for the valuation of its associates as reported by Thong in its 2013 Annual Report. If it does (a matter of time), the profit, NTA will balloon. Read the CEO's report in 2013 Annual Report.
"Based on our current 36.4% holding, the market value of this investment including warrants is about RM260 million compared to our book value of RM90 million, giving us an unrealised revaluation surplus of RM170 million. This surplus has not yet been taken up in our accounts.
Separately, the Group also currently holds 11.8% of Formis Resources Berhad, another technology company that is listed on Bursa Malaysia. The market value of our current holding is RM35 million. We have board representation in Formis and we are working closely and actively with other directors and management to grow this company. Formis provides technology services and solutions across a very diverse sector including financial services, oil and gas, telecommunications, payments systems, government and education. Recently, Formis diversified into property and construction through the acquisition of a strategic 23% holding in Ho Hup Construction Company Berhad, a company listed on the Main Board of Bursa Malaysia.
In summary, the total current value of our technology investments in Inari Amertron, Formis and other investments held under Insas Technology would amount to about RM300 million."
CEO's Statement in 2013 Annual Report
As at 31 Dec 2013, Inari was RM 1.63, Hohup RM 1.21 (after ex), Formis 0.735.
Dividend is a known fact in early January already. You all don't know??!!!!! There's nothing new about dividends for this quarterly results. No point bringing this up. The share price will continue to rise with its increasing NAV and profits.
wat if, every q on q profit down 33% again ur assumption still valid? if insas price is really worth 2.4x dont u the mkt would have rerated it to at least 2.00 by now ?
haha !!!! if u think pe 10 so high. pe 5 will at least translate eps 24.8 * 5 = rm 1.24 .....who can predict future???? ..... i just wan to emphasis here, insas share price very undervalue at least now. Inari n other subsidiaries are doing extremly well. Agree?
have u ever ask y it remain under value for so long while it's subsidiaries inari, hohup shoot up? y research house dont cover it? y kenanga set a low TP of 1.25 ? ans: it profits depend on stock mkt performance when the bear come, u will see its profit dive to hollan
